Did they drive off in a Honda Civic? I actually had that told to me about my red s13 coupe once. I put some rims and an exhaust on it and now he wants it.

oh and dont get the black and polished FNs they look like ***, if i was you i would get bronze, looks amazing with black. super flush FNs + dropped = anything but a chick car, some other things i would do is get the SE lip if u dont already have one and de-wing the trunk lid.
I was actually thinking lately that Bronze would look amazing. I was begining to think.

What about like 18x9.5's all around... Maybe +12 offset?

And would I have to make fender modifications to fit those in the front?

18x9.5 +12 is a great size, they might rub in the front so how about some 17x9.5? cheaper tires too...lol

Is a staggered setup recomended? Many say they don't do it, and A lot say they do.

And btw, I'd be willing to make the modifications to the fender to make the 18x9.5 fit, as long as its not excessive.

oh and btw thanks for all your help

Don't you fret boss, I got the exact same car, a 95. I put on 17" rims, tinted the windows and a suspension kit, which lowered it nicely. Also some choice dash trim. Now the compliments are rollinin' in, yes, from the guys too. It's a great car to modify the way you want. Keep it, it could be a classic one day! -- Eric.

It's a lil chickish in stock form. Do body mods and like someone said the compliments will role in. I did a jdm kouki rear bumper and paint, lowered 1.75in, and dark tints. and i get looks. i got a thumbs up from a guy drivin a Brand new 5series. it meant someting since i only get recognized by younger ppl into jap cars.

the 240sx caught on with a lot of girls in the beginning over here in the us. secretarys, nurses, hot blondes, etc etc. slowly, porsche 944 owners saw the potential in it. nissan raced it in the 90s isma gtu. then the jdm fad with drifting. thats about it.

wait...girls liking your car is a BAD thing?...lol...anyways 18x9.5 +12 sounds great, get some 20mm over fenders up front and roll and pull the rear, that SE lip would look great, oh and coilovers are the best thing since ****.

The only girly car I can think of out in the market is a VW Beetle, just because it looks so cute. But I have seen some that looks nothing like a girl car......so who cares, they have no idea your S14 is a piece of GOLD....

I know this doesn't make you feel any better.. but I'm a chick with a zenki. People tell me my car is girly often. Well, not really anymore since I've moved.. but still.
